Cute leo! Looks like a tremper albino.

It also looks like it's in the process of losing a couple of toes. This usually happens when the skin on the feet does not get shed. You may want to take a close look at the toes and see if you can see any more stuck skin. If you do, put the baby on a wet paper towel for awhile and then try to remove the stuck skin with a fine pair of forceps. It's too late for the black toes, but you could possibly save any other digits with stuck skin.
